They are the true heroines of the history of the Celle Castle. The Frenchwoman Eleonore d'Olbreuse made Georg Wilhelm the theater builder. Daughter Sophie Dorothea set a beacon of freedom on the political stage. Instead of continuing to be humiliated, she resolutely stood up to the male-dominated world of rulers. For the politically ambitious Hanover, it was clear: The rebellious women must be removed from the castle. No more theater. After all, it was once again a woman, Caroline Mathilde, who breathed new life into the dilapidated theater building around 100 years after its opening – the anniversary production SCHLOSS DER FRAUEN shows the story of the Celle Theater as what it really is: a story of emancipation. On the 350th anniversary of "their" theater, the three protagonists finally step into the spotlight. In their first joint live performance, they revive the struggle for freedom once more. Their great successes, their painful defeats, their most questionable acquaintances: nothing remains unmentioned on this timeless theater evening. A tribute to three great women, without whom Celle would be a forgotten place: unadulterated, magical, and radical. The soundtrack of longing for freedom is provided by the court band "Pour l’argent."

The freedom of theater preceded the freedom of assembly. It was women who gave freedom in Celle a stage. Eleonore, Sophie Dorothea, and Caroline Mathilde are rewriting the city guides with this play.
